Owen Jones meets Paloma Faith, Musicians are scared to speak out
Paloma Faith is rare as a modern musician because she s willing to speak out about her political beliefs. She told me that few musicians discuss politics because of the abuse directed at them on social media. People like Bob Dylan, Nina Simone and Bruce Springsteen show how politics and music can mix but too many contemporary artists are worried about album sales to voice their opinions. We also chatted about Brexit and what young people can do to bring about the change they want.
